mk2 beeza rally build

[R French]

Following the Sarn Helen, guess what - new rear beam needed! Had about 10 degress negative on the OS when I came into your control. Stub axle was fine.
So - trianglate away - I've got my welder out now!

Cheers.

The rear beam mounts are a protoytpe set at the moment designed by "Daved" from the club gti forum. Its taken some time to actually get them to the stage they are at now. Im financing the materials and machine costs Dave has done the drawings and organised the machining and quality control checks.

Im just waiting for delivery of them now to get them fitted.

Dave may organise a production run if they prove to be good. ( But we know they will be good!!)

Cool - if more sets are made, I'll have some. Got some VWM Polo Rally bushes in there presently which are like GpN, standard looking but harder rubber. But eventually they will give up and their not available anymore.

I know where you're coming from.
It can be difficult to get the VWM parts now. It seems to be a case of adapt and make your own.
My old golf was fitted with the bearing type mounts and they made such a difference to the car. You are in more direct contact with the surface of the track and can get a much better feel from the car.
The ones for the Ibiza are based around the VWM units.
